HAT-PIN.

Specification of Letters Patent. Application med February 15, 190s.

Patented Jan. 5, 1909.

Serial No. 416,019.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that LMosEs ROsENGARTEN, a subject of the Czar of Russia, and residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hat-Pins, of which the following is a speciiication. 1

This invention relates to hat pins, the object being to rovide a-hat pin with oppositely dispose sliding ins, which can be forced outwardly throug the hat after being inserted in the hair, so as to securely fasten the hat in place.

Another object of my invention is to provide very novel means for operating the pins, whereb by simply pullin on a knob, the pins wi l be forced outwar l and by pushing on the same, they will be forced inwardly.

Another object of my invention is to provide a hat pin which 1s exceedingly simple and chea in construction, and one which is compose of a very few parts, which are so arran ed that they are not likely to get out of or er.

Another object of my invention is to provide a hat pin which will not get caught in the hair when inserted, and one which is very neat in ap earance.

These o jects are obtained by the novel arrangement and construction of parts hereinafter fully described and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 1, 1s a perspective view of my improved hat in showing the application of the same. ig. 2, is a ongitu mal section View through the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the tube carrying the pins detached, and, Fig. 4, is a perspective view of the hat pin.

In the drawings A, indicates a casing or sheath, oval in cross section, having a contracted end A. In this sheath is arranged a tube B, which is slotted as shown at B, having a central stop lug C, secured therein. In this tube are oppositely disposed slidably mounted pins E and F, which are adapted to be forced out through the tube, and which are provided respectively with eyes E and F. The eye F carries an S shaped member F2, to which the one end of a cord G, is connected. This cord passes through guide eyes H and l, secured on the tube 1n alinement with the slot, the oval end ofthe cord beig connected to the eye E, as shown at The casing A, is provided with a slot A2, in one side, through which extends a wire J, provided with a hook J, at its inner end, adapted to engage the eye F, and provided at its outer end with a knob J2. The tube B is secured within the casing by solder, and the end Of`the casing is closed by a cap K, provided with an opening in alinement with the end of the tube, through which the pin F, is adapted to extend when the wire is vdrawn outwardly. It will be seen by connecting the pins together by a cord assing through the eyes arran ed on each end of the tube, that the pins wil be drawn outwardly as the eye F is drawn towards the end of the slot and forced inwardly as the eye is forced towards the central stop lug C.

The operation of the pin is as follows: When it is desired to secure a hatin place, the pin is forced through the hair so as toallow the knob to drop down to one side of the head, and the hat is placed on the head; By drawing downwardly on the knob, the pins will be forced out through the hat, so as to securely hold it in place.

Having thus described my invention what l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

l. A hat pin comprising a sheath open at both ends, oppositely projecting pins within said sheath, a cord engaging said pins to project them out of opposite ends of the sheath and a movable wire extending into the sheath and engaging the said cord whereby the pins may be operated.

2. A hat pin comprising a sheath open at both ends, oppositely projectinor pins within said sheath, a cord engaging said ins to project them out of the sheath and) a headed wire extending into the sheath from the exterior, said wire engaging at its end with the cord whereby the pins may be actuated.

3. A hat (pin comprising a slotted tube, pins mounte in said tube provided with eyes extending out through the slot of the tube, e es formed on said tube, and a lcord assing tllirough said tube eyes and connecte to the eyes of the pins.

4. A hat pin com rising a slotted tube, pins slidably mounte in said tube provided with eyes extending out through said slot, e es formed on said tube, a cord assing t rough said tube eyes connected to t e eyes of the pins, and operating means connected to one of said pins.

5. A hat pin comprising a slotted tube, pins mounted in said tube, provided with eyes extending out through said slot, e es formed on said tube adjacent to each en a cord passing through the e es of the tube Vand connected to the pins, an a Wire connected to one of said eyes on the pins for operating said pins.

6. A hat pin comprising a sheath oval in cross section provided With a contracted end, and having a slot in its side, a slotted tube arranged Within said casing, pins slidably mounted in said tube provided With eyes extendinCr out through said slot, eyes formed on the ends of the sheath, a cord passing through the eyes of the tube connected to the eyes of the pins, and a Wire extending through the',

slot of the sheath connected to the eye of one of the pins.

7. A hat pin comprising a sheath having i a contracted end, a slotted tube arrange Within said sheath, having a stop lug centrally arranged therein, guide eyes secured to said tube, adjacent its ends, pins siidably mounted in said tube provided with eyes extending out through said slot, anS shaped hook carried by one of said pins, a cord passing through the eyes of the tube connected to said S shaped hook, and to the eye of the other pin, said sheath being provided with a slot, a Wire having a knob at its outer end extending through said slot, and provided With a hook adapted to be secured to one of ythe eyes of one of the pins, and a cap arranged over the open end of said sheath, provired with an opening registering with said tu e.
